FRANCIS ALYS
lives in Mexico City
Tapestry by Alighiero e Boetti  
(Italian artist, 1940-1994)
titled Inaspettatamente
Embroided panel
18 x 17 cm
signed verso
Francis Alÿs swapped a drawing of him with a Mexican collector, Zacarias Martin , for this small tapestry produced by Alighiero e Boetti in Afghanistan.

He explains, in a certificate which was joined, he just learned that the ancestor of Alighiero e Boetti, Giovanni Battista Boetti, had led in the XVIIIth century the Chechenian resistance against Catherine of Russia. He also says at the end of the certificate that Alighiero Boetti would undoubtedly have been very pleased to be able to send a work on the ground for which his ancestor had fought 3 centuries earlier.  

In the envelop with the certificate, there are also the copies of the information that he found in a book as well as a drawing explaining how to present Alighiero e Boetti's work in Chechnya : the original work will have to be presented beside the certificate of Francis Alÿs and the copies of the book in which he found the information.
